Chapter 491: King Of The Dark Races

Xiao Lin logically broke everything down. No matter what, the old mans words sounded preposterous. Ibeiya earnestly listened to his analysis, and when Xiao Lin finished, he looked at the two of them quietly, waiting for their response.

Ibeiya cleared her throat, smiling enigmatically as she said, Youre right, but we dont care about that. We need you to reorganize our society. With your prestige, itd be more than enough.

I dont understand.

Big Brother Xiao Lin is Gods Chosen. Ibeiya was probably getting frustrated with Xiao Lin acting the fool, and could only drop that bomb.

The living room fell quiet, only their breaths could be heard. After a long while Ibeiya laughed, her laughter breaking the momentary silence. Your expression was a bit scary just now. Were you thinking about killing us to shut us up? Would you really be willing to kill me?

Then came Xiao Lins turn to feel awkward. Gods Chosen was a Normese term. In academy terminology, it would mean one with an SS-rank talent. Planet Norma might have countless talent holders, but to be called Gods Chosen, one could only be an SS-rank talent holder.

That was a secret; even within Dawn Academy, only the dean and that artificial intelligence, Bell, knew about it. Even someone as smart as Song Junlang could only guess at it, but he never managed to gain any evidence.

SS-rank talents can allow someone to gain tremendous status in a short while, just like Judge Academys Lilith. However, it would also bring countless troubles, such as assassination and sabotage attempts. Before he gained enough power, keeping a low profile was key.

Yet, now he had randomly been exposed by these two vampires. Xiao Lin could not help but be shocked at how they obtained such classified information. Did they have spies or traitors within Dawn Academy?

That was why Xiao Lin really did consider killing them, but he gave up quickly because the old man had sensed it as well, and subtly approached Ibeiya. Even his dragon breath failed to do anything to that old man. With his current weakness thanks to using Ruin, Xiao Lin did not have a choice.

Fine. Xiao Lin shrugged, defusing the situation. Even if it is as you say, I feel that this suggestion is crazy. All of this because Im Gods Chosen? What do you actually need me to do?

Ibeiya exchanged a look with the old man, and the old man said, In our future country, we hope that youll be our new king.

Xiao Lin stumbled a bit; the answer was way too out of his expectations. He said with some difficulty, Thats not a joking matter.

It really did seem like a joke. He did not believe that those people would just randomly pull anyone in to be a king. No matter how he looked at it, they were only planning on using him.

Ibeiya walked a few steps forward, closing the distance between them once again. That way, Xiao Lin started to smell her fragrance. She really knew how to use her abilities to her advantage!

I wont use you, and have no intention of lying to you. In truth, we have no other choice. Ever since the King of Darkness fell during ancient times, our race has been scattered. If youve looked us up, you should have some understanding of that history. Ibeiyas voice was very pleasing to the ear.

Xiao Lin blushed a little; their history lessons did not cover something so high-level.

Ibeiya continued, In thousands of years, our race has constantly been torn apart, to the degree that it has been shattered. Its not that no one has tried to save it, its just that its useless. Do you know why?

Xiao Lin started to get the idea, but he just looked at Ibeiya.

Ibeiya answered her own question. Thats because theres a saying that came from our past: that the only person that can lead the dark races is Gods Chosen. Darkness is merely the reverse side of light. Since the beginning of creation, we have been neglected by God, so only Gods Chosen can reunite everything again, just like the first King of Darkness. He was the first and only one of Gods Chosen in our history, but its a pity that the glory from before has already been lost. Big Brother, we arent seeking our former glory, nor do we dream of ruling the world or even making an enemy out of your academies. We just want somewhere we can really call home.

The old man slowly followed, Years ago, we found that person called Ivanovich. He had promised us as well, but its a pity that man met his end early. If youre worried about your position, then you can relax. I can guarantee you right now, our future country will always be your best ally. If your academy wishes to rule the world, then fine, well help you. If you wish to take over land, we would also cooperate. We have this saying in our world as wellan enemy of our enemy is a friend, is that not so?

Ivanovich had promised you! Xiao Lin finally snapped back to reality. That was the first SS-rank talent holder in the history of the academies; he had actually met that old man.

Thats right, he was a very strong man.

Xiao Lins mind was in disarray. He did not understand why Ivanovich had agreed to the request, or if that old man was just making things up.

Of course, Xiao Lin was more inclined to believe the second option. He might not have interacted with Ivanovich before, but that mythical man who created the Law of Immortality could not have betrayed mankind. It was illogical for him to help the dark races.

As if sensing his disbelief, Ibeiya pursed her lips and looked at the old man, asking, Lets bring him to look at the thing. Maybe hell believe us then.

The old man seemed hesitant.

Ibeiya said urgently, If we miss out on this chance, who knows how long well have to wait. Big Brother Xiao Lin is the most suitable. As for that other girl, we dont even need to think about her!

Lilith? After a brief moment of confusion, Xiao Lin suddenly exclaimed, Ibeiya, was that meeting with you in Wildfire Town actually not a coincidence? Did you arrange for it all?

Ibeiya was quite honest, or maybe she just did not think there was anything to hide at this stage as she admitted, Thats right. My status allows me to not draw any suspicions. In truth, I had only wanted to get closer to that Lilith since our reports only said that she was Gods Chosen, but then I met you accidentally, causing me to have to choose between the two of you. Thats why I followed you the whole way, and its only recently that I was sure you were the one we wanted!
